Dental practitioners. SOC code 2215.
In the DETE lists effective 13 May 2026, SOC 2215 is on neither published list: it is not named on the Critical Skills Occupations List or the Ineligible List of Occupations.
DETE uses SOC 2010 unit-group codes in the Critical Skills Occupations List and the Ineligible List of Occupations. The code is central to occupation eligibility, but it does not by itself determine a permit outcome; current list wording, job duties, salary, qualifications, employer and permit route also matter.

Important
An occupation (SOC) code classifies the kind of work. It does not by itself determine permit eligibility, Critical Skills status, or sponsorship. Job duties, salary, employer and permit route also matter.
